Britain Hart will defend her BKFC strawweight title against Tai Emery in the co-main event of Day 1 of BKFC Dubai on April 4, marking her fourth consecutive title defense.
Britain Hart is gearing up for another title defense, this time against the viral sensation Tai Emery. It’s gonna be a showdown!
The reigning BKFC strawweight champ will face off with Emery in the co-main event on Day 1 of BKFC Dubai. Mark your calendars: April 4 at the Dubai Tennis Stadium. For Hart, this will be her fourth consecutive defense of the 115-pound title. Meanwhile, Emery’s chasing her first championship—talk about high stakes.
Hart’s been nothing short of a star for BKFC. Remember when she took down Charisa Sigala in 2022 to snag the strawweight title? Since then, she’s defended it against Taylor Starling, Melanie Shah, and Jenny Savage. Five straight wins in the BKFC ring! And let’s not forget her victories over Paige VanZant and Bec Rawlings. Impressive résumé, right?
Now, let’s talk Emery. She’s only had two fights in BKFC but made waves after a win over Rung-Arun Khunchai at a BKFC: Thailand event. Her celebration? Flashing the audience—yep, that happened. Although she didn’t win against Chisakan Ariphipat next time out, she still made headlines by breaking Sigala’s nose at a July 2024 RIZIN event in Saitama, Japan. Quite the journey!
BKFC Dubai isn’t just about Hart and Emery, though. The event spans April 4 and April 5. Day 1’s headliner? A welterweight clash between Austin Trout and Carlos Trinidad. Day 2 promises fireworks too with featherweight champion Kai Stewart taking on Tommy Strydom.
